CREAMY
CAULIFLOWER, CHEDDAR CHEESE AND BACON
Fabulous side dish worthy of company! So simple, yet so very tasty. This is a pretty side dish with plenty of lovely color. I know I'll be serving it to my son, Daniel and his fiance soon. They're coming to visit. I'm so excited. I love it when I have more quality time with family. It is so beautiful and green on the mountain where we live literally in the jungle. It is our rainy season, but most days we see the sun for a number of hours, so it doesn't bother me. We do get a lot of crazy thunderstorms and the hardest rain I have ever experienced in my life!
